Quick question, honest question......
At what point are the right happy?
Because the left will be happy when everybody has equal rights, and a high standard of living for everyone.
So, if that's the lefts benchmark of a great society, what's the right fighting towards? Money? Power? Control?
Then what?
When is America "great again"?
Because they've been pushing that slogan since the 80s. What's the endgame here?
Because from where I'm sitting, there is no endgame. Nothing will ever make them happy. Nothing will ever be good enough. So what the fuck is the point?
I think they are trying to go back to before they were grown up and had to deal with adult issues. They idolize their innocent childhood and some how associated that as the time when America was great. They find it really confusing that the child's perspective of that time window was flawed. They also find it confusing that different age conservatives all imagine a different time window for when life was good.
Most of them were beaten as children. It's one of the most common features of authoritarian enablers.
